The Raspberry Pi 400 is a fantastic emulation platform, but how well can the Raspberry Pi emulate Windows 98? I walk you through installing Windows 98 on the Raspberry Pi 400, and install some classic games and software.

"There isn't really much you can do on Win98" Ummm I play a lot of my childhood educational games on it and discovering more games on Internet Archive if my comment isn't shadowbanned!

Nice! I'm still waiting for a RPi400 Linux distro with login menu options like "Commodore 64", "Amiga 500", "Amiga 1200", "486/Win 98", etc ready to go with all software already setup :)

@DaveHoltzman 3 роки тому

Im right there with you.. already using twister os. dial up bbses in a distro would also be cool complete with games and art work.

@kimorlandonilsson1196 2 роки тому

Oh year. That would be amazing. Or just a Windows 98 ready distro. All configured and ready to run.

5:47 You don't need to do "cd ~", typing a "cd" by itself will by default in most shells I believe take you to your $HOME folder.

@FineFlourishes 3 роки тому

@Kamey CD .. will take you to the parent directory of the one you're in.

@szponiasty 2 роки тому

wow, it works. been using linux as a daily driver for almost 10 years and didn't knew that :) i've been always using cd ~ to get to home. thx :)

@Supertimegamingify 2 роки тому

@Kamey no need to when you can just execute cd from any directory.

@iDontProgramInCpp 2 роки тому

Yeah, that's true. In windows however, just typing "cd" is the equivalent of linux's "pwd"

@kjamison5951 Рік тому

I skipped 98 and went from 95C to 98SE. This is definitely something I would be interested in, just to play the old Windows Entertainment Pack games. Things were much simpler back then. And I have a Pi400 now!

@HotDog7200 7 місяців тому

I know this is an old comment, but if you have the iso files for it, you can run them on modern Windows using OTVDM, which is itself pretty easy to install and run.

@MegaManNeo 3 роки тому

I actually need to try this to get working for my next retro LAN once we get the pandemic under control. No, seriously. This has been something I wanted to try for long but as you said... tutorials aimed to get Win98 running are really cryptic.

@minedustry 3 роки тому

You could setup a machine running win server 2000 and have everyone vpn into a win98 game. Might not get everything pre tcpip running but most everything should work like it always did.

@greendragon8742 3 роки тому

Is there a way to emulate windows 98 without an x-server? Maybe somehow through the linux framebuffer? I would think that this could run faster.

@BryanChance Рік тому

wow..that's impressive!

@mkastelovic 3 роки тому

Dan you should run that doom directly in the dos, not via Win98. No wonder it was slow. Are you able to answer me one question which I always ask, but nobody till now was able to answer it in the videos, please? Actually what is the speed of that emulated machine? For example a good info is already the System information Benchmarks from Norton utilities 6 or 7( dos version ). Thanks very much in advance.

@rectify2003 3 роки тому

Dan, can you do a Full build and ISO it up with a clean install please?

@kizuGi 7 місяців тому

Everything works correct with that configuration ? Any problems ? I need to use that in some old machine

@HomelessTechnology 2 роки тому

Have you messed around with PCem for Windows? Version 17 supports real hardware configs from 8086 to slot 1 pentium 2 and video cards from CGA / EGA up to SLI 3dfx Voodoo 2 or AGP Voodoo 3. Works really well now I even have a Packard Bell PB570 VM running the stock Packard Bell factory image of 95.

@ninline2000 3 роки тому

I remember seeing Win98 on a friends PC back then. I was running an Amiga 3000 with an 060 accelerator card and 16MB of RAM at the time. I couldn't believe how slow and awful it was compared to my older system. When I upgraded to a Dual P2/333 later on I installed SUSE Linux because of that experience. It was difficult at first but after a few months I fell in love with the power. It's funny now to look back and see the changes that have happened over the last 20 or so years.

@AislingVision2012 Рік тому

Thanks Dan, I successfully installed Win98 on the Pi with dosbox-x. The only problem is, having shutdown it down for the first time. I now don't know how to re-start Win98 !? Dosbox-x seems to keep asking for a working directory from which to run emulators ?

@TBL_stevennelson 3 роки тому

I loved Jasc Paintshop pro and the Animation program. I Made GIF

@batedjupiter 3 роки тому

Btw with qemu its much easier you just need the iso file and a few commands to boot to windows 98 I've managed to boot to windows 7 with qemu

@B5DIN 3 роки тому

If you want 3DFX Voodoo3 emulation, AWE32 emulation, 8GB of HDD, easy instalation and manipulation with other goodies... try PCem. Sure, ya need at least Ryzen 3 1200 to run it, but it's still great. However, it's still impressive to see Win98 run on a Pi. I hope it'll be eventually more usable with better power and emulation options. :)

@DH-fu7bx 8 місяців тому

what about windows 98 on raspberry pi 3?

@slowlymakingsmoke 3 роки тому

Not bad, but that speed is a bit too slow for me. I wonder what is would be like with an overclocked pi, dosbian and a 4:3 resolution?

@Agof860 Місяць тому

How comes the vidéo games work properly. I have some W98 virtual machines with VBOX or VMware but I had issues with graphic card émulation.

@artype211 3 роки тому

Hello. What vlc version you can use in win98?

@gamepad3173 Рік тому

and would it be possible to load Windows 98 SE on an SD card and have the Pi boot from that? since I would also be using a USB floppy drive and a SSD as the main boot drive (Optical drive included).

@HAGSLAB 3 роки тому

Ooooh, so early 😮

@georg6876 3 роки тому

Dosbox is a bit naff. What about using qemu and it's x86 emulation or use box86 and virtualbox.

Hi,i installed windows 98 using this guide in my Raspberry Pi 4b 4gb and they perform really slow even doom game runs like 5fps,is there some way to boost the performance??

@leannejames5853 3 роки тому

Love the content. I'm curious about running windows nt 4 workstation and windows nt 4 server on the pi this way. I assume it's possible since they ran on the same low end Pentium machines that Win95/98 would. Have you tried it?

@Latcheky98 8 місяців тому

No you wouldn’t because windows nt runs on the nt kernel not on top of dos like what dos box emulates if you wanted to do that I would use qemu

QEMU exists. It won't be fast, though

This is not as useful as it could be, if there's no 3D acceleration, or better yet, 3Dfx Glide support. On a different note, Doom would likely run much better if you tried the DOS version directly in DosBox.

+1 for effort . but windows 98 if anything , lived longer then it should have. it got more use then it should have. what didt get any where near it's full potential . this operating system was truly 32bit, and not just a fake 32bit overlay ontop of the same old 16bit DOS shell is ;; )r0ww--------------------

so it appears that the windows 98 is running inside the raspberry pi os. How would you run a cmd? If i were to run cmd while on the Windows 98 os, would it use a windows kernal and syntax, or the kernal and syntax the raspberry pi os uses?

It was pretty awful, but WinME was far worse. I consider every windows OS prior to XP to be beta or alpha software. My brother in law upgraded from ME to XP and lost his printer. There was no XP driver for it. He cheerfully bought a new printer, saying "It's worth it not to have the damn computer crash every 30 minutes anymore."
